Hot Rod Hotel Lyrics

Artist: Billy Bragg
Album: Mermaid Avenue-Vol II

I'm a porter and a night clerk at the old Hot Rod HotelI clean and scrub the lobby down and thirty one rooms as wellI wax and shine their boots and shoes, I brush down their crinkeldy clothesI meet the buses and the trains and show you to your door

Bell bottom pants brought two boys in at six fourteen last nightTwo girls checked in at ten otwo and I flipped on their lightThe lamrods wife looks in their doors and finds one terrible sightThose boys and girls got bawled up in their doors and rooms last night

A bloody flood could never messed these rooms up any worseIt looked like Moe had used this room to grease and breed a horseOld gum and hairs and sticky rags, old bottles on the floorsGobs of spit and condom rubbers on the windows, walls and doors

The lammy tried to make me clean up the crappy messOr else he'd fire me off my job and let me starve to deathI laid aside my polish rag and downed my dusting panAnd I've not seen the old Hot Rod nor that old town since then
